You're Not Lost, You're in Motion: Redefining What It Means to Thrive
In this solo reflection, I share a powerful reframe on what it really means to thrive — especially when you're navigating transitions, uncertainty, or moments when clarity feels out of reach.
Inspired by a recent PowerToFly session and the wisdom of Elizabeth Weingarten, this episode gently challenges the idea that thriving means having it all figured out. Instead, you’ll be invited to recognize the strength it takes to keep going — one step at a time — and to trust that motion, not perfection, is evidence of your growth.
Whether you're between roles, rebuilding after a life shift, or simply unsure of your next move, this episode offers encouragement, affirmation, and a reminder:
✨ You are not behind.
✨ You are not broken.
✨ You are in motion — and that, my friend, is thriving.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- A grounding reminder about how we define “thriving”
- Why it’s okay to not have all the answers
- How to notice and honor your progress
- A journaling prompt to help you reflect on your own thriving journey
Mentioned in this episode:
- How to Fall in Love with Questions by Elizabeth Weingarten
- PowerToFly community session on navigating uncertainty
- An invitation to the Courage to Elevate cohort for women navigating transition
